God sometimes gives us unexpected gifts. Our gift has been a grandson who enlivens our lives and makes retirement very different than the one we anticipated. He is a special joy. And that's "Casey." In 2006 we fulfilled our dream of living in Italy for a year. It was every bit as wonderful as anticipated. This blog begins in 2005 as we prepared for that experience. Since then we have explored many places together. That's the "Travel." And finally, I am a person of opinions--spiritually, politically, on just about anything and that's the "Other Stuff." Welcome to my blog.

Not Really a Posting

This is truly not a posting--am running around doing things like buying a flat screen monitor for KC, tires for car, etc. But---for my friend in Sweden--just want to tell you that it is a gloomy, cold by our standards-63 farhenheit, drizzley, grey day here--not sunny California summer weather at all! I may even have to put socks on with my sandals! Would you say we here are spoiled by God's bounty?

I do promise to write more in a day or two and catch you up on the saga of the visa--it has taken an interesting twist--maybe.

Ain't that funny - yesterday, when you had bad weather, was the first day this year that we had really great weather, and I spent the entire afternoon as well as most of the evening in my bikini in the sun on our balcony!

But quite frankly, you don't have any right whatsoever to complain about weather... ;)
